Dear sir

Weight loss is usually associated with diabetes when it is uncontrolled.

That too if your blood sugars goes high there will be frequent urination which cause loss of bodywater content causing weight loss.

It is advised to check fasting and post prandial blood sugars and take adequate treatment for the same..

thanks
